MANCHESTER, N.H. — A man armed with a gun died after he was shot by police outside of a Manchester apartment building, the New Hampshire attorney general's office said Friday.
Police received a 911 call around 3:25 a.m. for a report of a person who was armed at the building, the office said in a statement.
Police arrived to find a man with a gun. "During the encounter, four Manchester Police Officers discharged their firearms and one additional Manchester Police Officer discharged a less-lethal munition," according to a news release from the New Hampshire attorney general's office.
Life-saving measures were attempted, but the man, identified as Alex Naone, 26, of Hooksett, died. It was not made clear if Naone died at the scene.
An autopsy was conducted on Friday by Chief Medical Examiner Jennie V. Duval and revealed Naone's cause of death was gunshot wounds to the chest and abdomen.
"The manner of death was homicide," the AG's office said.
No one else was hurt, the statement said.
The identities of the officers involved are reportedly being withheld until interviews are completed. "Initial responding officers did have body-worn cameras," the release stated.
